Confidence

Confidence: The full trust and belief in yourself; trustworthiness or reliability of a person or thing

In order to succeed I believe you need confidence. When you apply confidence to any task you are currently working on, you can only prosper and bring out your best abilities. The foundation of confidence is love. The reason why confidence never fails is because love never fails. Over the years there have been times where I lacked confidence on the court and I didn't play to my full potential. I had a talk with my mom and she brought that confidence out of me. She told me that being successful is just a matter of:

Believing you deserve to be successful

Believing your thoughts create your destiny

Consistently doing every good thing to help my team win.

Having extreme confidence in your God given abilities

It was a matter of me making a mental adjustment and trusting in my God given abilities. Every day of last summer I would work on my game every morning. I'd visualize my whole senior season and helping my team as much as I can, while I was playing to my full potential. You just have to believe in yourself and in God and the sky WILL be the limit.
